Re-Spacing Hayabusa TB's
Are there any companies out there that can do this? Need them to be spaced to fit a DCOE manifold.

Altiss Engineering - superb work.
He did my manifold for bike TB's onto a Zetec - picture

Hi Wyn,
Yep - found Altiss. There work looks far superior to BB from what I can see on the websites. More pricey, but I suppose you get what you pay for!

Quality does come at a cost I guess!

*Any* local engineering shop should be able to do this for you for a very reasonable cost.
If spacing to DCOE, just buy a Jenvey fuel rail...

respacing throttle bodies
Try www.throttle-bodies.com, found advert one night they do respacing kits and adaptors etc for using dcoe manifolds , haven't used them yet but
seem to have a good range of kits and suspect they would help if they don't already have a kit

I respaced mine to zetec 45 manifold my self. The manifold was easy, I just cut off the flanges and spent a few hours with a die grinder with a
carbide cutter, and some strip emery paper and it worked a treat.
Throttle body spacing was quite cheap and easy too, B&Q for some M5 threaded studding, some aluminum tubing to cut 6 X (12mm I think) lengths
using a small pipe cutter, which spaces the bodies out. Some aluminum rod drilled out and a groove at each end for the o rings sorts out the fuel
rail, and some pieces off flat steel, pop rivets and araldite sorted the linkages. All sorted for less than £15. The fuel rail will need use of a
lathe and tig welding for the tee piece but should be quite cheap if done by an engineering place.
